Tragic incident in the Nogidish study house: a quarrel between 2 brothers-in-law; one fell by the Holy Ark and died.

On Wednesday morning at 7 o'clock, right after prayers, a quarrel broke out in the Nogidish study house between the brothers-in-law Eliyahu Fein and Mordechai Rubinshtein (son and son-in-law of Alter Reb Yankel's). In the middle of the quarrel Mr. Fein fell down by the Holy Ark and died at once. Because there is a suspicion that the deceased Fein received a blow to the heart from his brother-in-law (Mr. Fein always suffered from a heart condition), the police sealed the study house and left the dead man lying there until Thursday at 2 o'clock in the afternoon. The brother-in-law, who had been arrested, has been released.
